Configuring IPv6 PIM-SSM
NOTE:
The IPv6 PIM-SSM model needs the support of MLDv2. Be sure to enable MLDv2 on IPv6 PIM routers with
receivers attached to them.
IPv6 PIM-SSM configuration task list
Complete these tasks to configure IPv6 PIM-SSM:
Task Remarks
Enabling IPv6 PIM-SM Required
Configuring the IPv6 SSM group range Optional
Configuring IPv6 PIM common features Optional
Configuration prerequisites
Before you configure IPv6 PIM-SSM, complete the following tasks:
Enable IPv6 forwarding and configure an IPv6 unicast routing protocol so that all devices in the
domain are interoperable at the network layer
Determine the IPv6 SSM group range
Enabling IPv6 PIM-SM
The SSM model is implemented based on some subsets of IPv6 PIM-SM. Therefore, you must enable IPv6
PIM-SM before configuring IPv6 PIM-SSM.
When you deploy an IPv6 PIM-SSM domain, enable IPv6 PIM-SM on all non-border interfaces of routers.
To enable IPv6 PIM-SSM:

Command Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Enable IPv6 multicast routing.
multicast ipv6 routing-enable Disable by default.
3. Enter interface view.

4. Enable IPv6 PIM-SM.
pim ipv6 sm Disabled by default.
CAUTION:
A
ll the interfaces of the same device must work in the same IPv6 PIM mode.
Configuring the IPv6 SSM group range
Whether the information from an IPv6 multicast source is delivered to the receivers based on the IPv6
PIM-SSM model or the IPv6 PIM-SM model depends on whether the group address in the (S, G) channel
